Yes, you will need to delete and recreate the PV. "rm -rf" or whatever else you deem sufficient is good enough for the volume itself. Recreating the PV to point at the newly scrubbed storage will be all you need.

What is the best way to manually reclaim a persistent volume once it has been released from a claim?

$ oc get pv

NAME CAPACITY ACCESSMODES STATUS CLAIM REASON AGE

pv00002 10Gi RWX Released fun/test1 19h

Do I just manually delete the pv with “oc delete pv00002” and rm -rf the underlying data? Wasn’t sure if there was a specific command to handle that via openshift.
